Project description:Mesocosms (600 L) were deployed at the Southern Ocean Time Series (SOTS) in Austral late summer during a high nutrient, low chlorophyll period. One mesocosm represented control, present-day conditions (high nutrients/low temperature/low pCO2/low Fe/low irradiance), while the other was amended to represent a projected 2100 scenario (low nutrients/high temperature/high pCO2/high Fe/high irradiance). Approximately 2 L were filtered from the mesocosms onto 5 µm filters at Days 0, 2, 4, and 7 of the incubation.

Project description:Current advances in genomics and computational biology have afforded novel insight as to how the phenotype is generated from the genotype – systems biology. We argue that systems biology, when viewed through an ecological lens, provides an unprecedented opportunity to understand how genes cascade through multiple levels of biological organization to alter ecosystem function. To test this approach, we established six monocultures of Arabidopsis thaliana ‘Columbia’- wild-type plants, six monocultures of a single gene variant (mutant) to the wild-type, and six mixtures with equal density plantings of each genotype in mesocosm chambers (50 x 50 x 45 cm). The mutant harbored a T-DNA insertion in the main nitrate reductase gene (nia2). This is the gateway enzyme for N metabolism, which resulted in activity levels that were 38% of the wild-type. Mesocosms were instrumented to monitor soil and air temperature, water and humidity status, and CO2 differentials. Transcript expression profiles were generated for each of the monoculture populations by collecting and processing 100 leaves per mesocosm at generation 2 and 4.

Transcript expression profiles were generated for each of the monoculture populations by collecting and processing 100 leaves per mesocosm at generation 2 and 4. Design: Expression profiles were generated for each monoculture population by pooling 100 leaves per mesocosm into one sample. This resulted in 6 biological replicates for each genotype per generation. Thus, a total of 48 samples were generated (6 wild-type + 6 nia2 mutants x 2 generations x 2 CO2 treatments) and hybridized onto microarrays. We used a direct loop design analyzing generations separately (diagrams of hybridization designs are linked as supplementary PDF files).

Project description:Climate change has profound impacts on marine biodiversity and biodiversity changes in turn might affect the community sensitivity to impacts of abiotic changes. We used mesocosm experiments and Next Generation Sequencing to study the response of the natural Baltic and Mediterranean unicellular eukaryotic plankton communities (control and +6°C heat shock) to subsequent salinity changes (-5 psu, +5 psu). The impact on Operational Taxonomic Unit (OTU) richness, taxonomic and functional composition and rRNA:rDNA ratios were examined. Our results showed that heat shock leads to lower OTU richness (21% fewer OTUs in the Baltic and 14% fewer in the Mediterranean) and a shift in composition toward pico- and nanophytoplankton and heterotrophic related OTUs. Heat shock also leads to increased rRNA:rDNA ratios for pico- and micrograzers. Less than 18% of shared OTUs were found among the different salinities indicating the crucial role of salinity in shaping communities. The response of rRNA:rDNA ratios varied highly after salinity changes. In both experiments the diversity decrease brought about by heat shock influenced the sensitivity to salinity changes. The heat shock either decreased or increased the sensitivity of the remaining community, depending on whether it removed the more salinity-sensitive or the salinity-tolerant taxa.

Project description:Mounting concern over the loss of marine biodiversity has increased the urgency of understanding its consequences. This urgency spurred the publication of many short-term studies, which often report weak effects of diversity (species richness) driven by the presence of key species (the sampling effect). Longer-term field experiments are slowly accumulating, and they more often report strong diversity effects driven by species complementarity, calling into question the generality of earlier findings. However, differences among study systems in which short- and long-term studies are conducted currently limit our ability to assess whether these differences are simply due to biological or environmental differences among systems. In this paper, we compared the effect of intertidal seaweed species richness on biomass accumulation in mesocosms and field experiments using the same pool of species. We found that seaweed species richness increased biomass accumulation in field experiments in both short (2-month) and long (3-year) experiments, although effects were stronger in the long-term experiment. In contrast, richness had no effect in mesocosm experiments, where biomass accumulation was completely a function of species identity. We argue that the short-term experiments, like many published experiments on the topic, detect only a subset of possible mechanisms that operate in the field over the longer term because they lack sufficient environmental heterogeneity to allow expression of niche differences, and they are of insufficient length to capture population-level responses, such as recruitment. Many published experiments, therefore, likely underestimate the strength of diversity on ecosystem processes in natural ecosystems.
